Project description:To gain insight into the adrenal stress response, we analyzed differential mRNA expression of genes associated with stress induced by aggressive behaviour in the pig In an animal experiment various levels of aggressive behaviour and stress were induced by mixing groups of unfamiliar pigs with different aggressiveness. To analyze adrenal stress response we selected two experimental groups for comparison, each comprising eight animals (n=16) which differed significantly in aggressive behaviour and plasma cortisol levels. To identify differentially expressed genes, we compared the adrenal transcriptome of these two groups of pigs, using the Affymetrix GeneChip porcine Genome Array.

Project description:Large White and Meishan pigs were either non-treated or injected with mammalian 1-24 ACTH (Immediate Synachten, Novartis France) at the dose of 250 µg per animal. Pigs were sacrificed either immediately after capture from their home cage (non-treated animals) or 1 hour following ACTH injection. Adrenal glands were immediately collected from pigs and frozen on dry ice and then stored at -80°C until RNA isolation. Keywords: stress response, adrenal, gene expression, pig 47 samples

Project description:Maternal stress during late pregnancy can lead to intrauterine hyperthermia affecting fetal hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis development and function. This study aimed to characterize the impact of in utero heat stress on the postnatal offspring's adrenal gland transcriptome.

Project description:Background Understanding the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity is a challenge in contemporary biology. Domestication provides a model for unravelling aspects of this, for example with respect to stress sensitivity. Ancestral Red Junglefowl (RJF) show more fearful behaviour and a more pronounced HPA-axis reactivity than its domesticated descendant White Leghorn (WL). By comparing adrenal global gene transcription profiles between WL and RJF as well as their plasma levels of adrenal hormones in response to an acute stress event, we aimed at investigating the molecular basis for the altered physiological stress responsiveness in domesticated chicken.

Project description:Transcription factor GATA6 is expressed in the fetal and adult adrenal cortex and has been implicated in steroidogenesis. To characterize the role of GATA6 in adrenocortical development and function, we generated mice in which Gata6 was conditionally deleted using Cre-LoxP recombination with Sf1-cre. The adrenal glands of adult Gata6 conditional knockout (cKO) mice were small and had a thin cortex with thickened capsule. Cytomegalic changes were evident in the adrenal glands of fetal and adult cKO mice, and chromaffin cells were ectopically located at the periphery of the glands. The secretion of corticosterone in response to exogenous ACTH was blunted in cKO mice. Cells expressing gonadal-like markers, including Gata4, Amhr2, and Tcf21, accumulated in the adrenal capsule and subcapsule of cKO mice, suggesting aberrant adrenocortical progenitor/stem cell differentiation. Gonadectomy triggered the overexpression of sex steroidogenic differentiation markers, such as Lhcgr and Cyp17, in the adrenal glands of male and female cKO mice. Nulliparous female and orchiectomized male cKO mice lacked an adrenal X-zone. Microarray hybridization identified Pik3c2g as a novel X-zone marker that is downregulated in the adrenal glands of nulliparous female Gata6 cKO mice. Our findings offer genetic proof of the longstanding hypothesis that GATA6 regulates the differentiation of steroidogenic progenitors into corticoid-producing cells. 3 replicates from both conditional knockout of Gata6 in the adrenal gland and control adrenal glands from non-knockout mice were compared

Project description:Despite the ubiquitous function of macrophages across the body, the diversity, origin, and function of adrenal gland macrophages remain largely unknown. We defined the heterogeneity of adrenal gland immune cells using single-cell RNA sequencing and used genetic models to explore the developmental mechanisms yielding to macrophage diversity. We defined populations of monocyte-derived and embryonically seeded adrenal gland macrophages and identified a female-specific subset with low MHC-II expression. In adulthood, monocyte recruitment dominated adrenal gland macrophage maintenance in female mice, while self-proliferation was more important in males. Adrenal gland macrophage sub-tissular distribution followed a sex-dimorphic pattern, with MHC-IIlow macrophages located at the border between the cortex and the medulla. Macrophage sex dimorphism depended on the presence of the cortical Xzone. Forcing X-zone maintenance in males, or its degradation in females, directly impacted the presence of MHC-IIlow macrophages. Adrenal gland macrophage depletion resulted in altered tissue homeostasis, modulated lipid- metabolism and decreased local aldosterone production during stress exposure. Overall, these data explain the heterogeneity of adrenal gland macrophages and point toward sexrestricted distribution and functions of these cells.
